As you may know, Danielle Kehoe will be competing in the Ironman World Championships this coming Saturday, October 8, 2011, proudly wearing LifeQuest colors. She is one of eight athletes featured by the Ironman Foundation to help raise funds for her charity of choice, LifeQuest Transitions. This has big potential for LifeQuest, if we help her by getting the word out. Please share Danielle’s site with friends, family and whomever else you’re comfortable reaching out to via email, Facebook, Twitter, and any other means you feel inclined to use. On the day of the race, Ironman will feature Danielle for a ½ hour period, where Ironman will match all donations within that time frame. You can follow her on the day of the race at http://ironmanlive.com/.

About Danielle:
Danielle Kehoe is a certified American College of Sports Medicine – Health Fitness Specialist (ACSM-HFS) and applies her degree in Human Performance and Adult Fitness and Exercise Science daily at LifeQuest. Danielle’s responsibilities at LifeQuest Transitions include coaching wounded, ill, and/or injured soldiers during physical training sessions and within more focused adaptive mobility training groups. The training that she conducts with LifeQuest participants vastly shortens the cycle to physical resilience and helps our wounded, injured, and ill soldiers to heal themselves.
Danielle is an accomplished endurance athlete having qualified for ten World Championships between triathlon and XTERRA. She holds titles for her age group in both Triathlon and XTERRA National Championships. She also competed in the first Checkpoint Tracker Adventure Racing National Championship last year in Moab, Utah. She currently races elite for LifeQuest Transitions. Danielle just competed in her first Ironman on May 7, 2011 at the St. George Ford Ironman. Her impressive finish secured her an opportunity to race in the Kona Ford Ironman World Championship in Hawaii, by winning her age group and placing 2nd overall amongst amateur females with a time of 10:46:44. She is training extremely hard to represent us at the highest level in Kona, Hawaii October 8, 2011. Then she will be competiting in the XTERRA World Championship two weeks later in Maui, Hawaii, October 23, 2011.
Let’s help Danielle get the word out about her cause and help her reach the $50,000 Ironman Foundation fundraising goal!!! Please let me or Alicia know if you would like to get further involved. Thank you!
